Chickpea Flour (Besan) – Nutty, Versatile, and Naturally Wholesome
Chickpea flour, also known as besan or gram flour, is a finely ground flour made from dried chickpeas. With its naturally nutty flavour and smooth texture, it’s a staple in Indian cooking, Middle Eastern cuisine, and gluten‑free baking. This versatile flour is perfect for making pakoras, bhajis, pancakes, flatbreads, and savoury batters, while also adding protein and fibre to bread, cakes, and desserts. Popular in vegan recipes and plant‑based diets, chickpea flour is valued for its ability to bind, thicken, and enrich dishes without gluten.
